A real vibrancy: Catching up with Oregon Symphony Music Director David Danzmayr * Oregon ArtsWatch

I spoke with Danzmayr on a frigid Tuesday morning. He arrived in Portland late the night before from working with the Pro Musica ensemble in Columbus. He showed up just in time for our ten A.M. interview, already brimming with enthusiasm, and spoke with verve. We discussed the origins of the festival, European and American attitudes towards music, and the Oregon Symphony's role in the state's musical culture and economy.
